Bushel Box Farm Shop

We are closed until 5pm

@LauraDonohueCGC @Flavour105 Hi Laura. The crop is great this year. Here’s a pic of my Friday afternoon view. Just me and the birds and blue skies

Amidst all the summer bounty, the honest apricot is one of the rarest and best pleasures. Thank you @Flavour105 for giving them airtime with my apricot love story, and here’s hoping Wendy’s apricot crop at @Bushelbox is coming along nicely this year.

We’ve been nominated in the Muddy Stilettos Best Farm Shop/ Deli category for Suffolk & Cambs.Please vote for us by Friday 20th May to get us through to the next round. There are loads of other great local businesses to support too!

We are open today 10-4 but only accessible from Willingham due to a burst water main further up the road. Please ignore the road closed sign if you want to visit us!

Work view today is lovely

Planted out the broad beans and potatoes this week

We’re open today 9-4 and tomorrow 9-6.

#SmallBizSatUK Thanks to all of our customers. We and every other small business you visit really appreciate your support

Yesterday we went plum knocking- removing old fruit to improve the quality of next years crop!

Today’s apple is Golden Delicious. Love to hate it because it’s soft woolly and tasteless? Yes if picked too early or stored too long. But try one we picked yesterday. You might change your mind. Not all apples are the same!

Meet Steve driving one of our trusty Massey tractors as we harvest Braeburn apples. As a small grower most of our produce is sold directly though the shop. Come and see us and our range of apples. Currently 14 varieties available all grown right here.

It’s Willingham Ploughing match today so we just have to share a picture of our Bloody Ploughman apples! Sharper in flavour with blood red flesh. Make great apple tarts.

Tentation apples from our farm. Sweet fresh flavour. Firm texture. Juicy. Beautiful sun blushed skin. Who needs imported right now?!

It’s a busy time on the farm so no newsletter this week. Today we picked Verity plums, more Marjorie Seedling, more Burbank… you think you‘re caught up then realise Lord Lambourne are ready and Cropper need picking! There’s always tomorrow. …..

Can't believe it's the last day of summer & what a scorcher it's been! 😂😭. Thankfully we've a tasty selection of hearty seasonal veg, incl new season leeks, onions, parsnips & various cabbages for all those casseroles, roasts & soups #Autumn #ShopLocal #Farmshop #SmallBiz
